American Right to Life[1] spokesman Bob Enyart said today that his organization will pull its endorsement of GOP Senate hopeful Ken Buck[2] because “he’s already broken every pro-life campaign promise he’s made.”

Enyart told The Denver Post that he’s going to issue a statement to “all pro-life voters” Friday urging them not to vote for Buck because he has backtracked on a primary campaign promise [3]that he would never vote on a Senate confirmation of anyone who is “pro-abortion.”

Buck has since said he would never use abortion as a litmus test for Senate confirmations, and he didn’t know at the time that “pro-abortion” meant “pro-choice.”

“He’s making a distinction between pro-choice and pro-abortion, which no pro-life group makes,” Enyart said. “He played us for fools and he did it successfully.”

Enyart also said he is dismayed that Buck said he supported the personhood[4] amendment during the primary and now refuses to take a position [5]on Amendment 62, which guarantees constitutional protections to “any human being from the moment of conception.”

Colorado Right to Life vice president Leslie Hanks also weighed in, saying in a blog post [6]that, “we would rather he be a statesman than a politician … the care of human life and happiness, and not their destruction, is the first and only legitimate object of good government,” she said, quoting Thomas Jefferson.

Because Enyart would not support Buck’s opponent Democratic Sen. Michael Bennet[7] either, he says he’s asking pro-life Christians to vote for gubernatorial candidate Tom Tancredo and for the personhood amendment. As for the U.S. Senate race, Enyart says voters can “write someone in.”

“The fact is, Ken is pro-life,” Loftus said. “He has several prolife organizations supporting him, but as we’ve said from the beginning, this is about fighting for jobs and controlling spending in Washington.”
